1 The following command line options are available for Maxima:
6 @item -b <file>, --batch=<file>
7 Process maxima file <file> in batch mode.
11 @item --batch-lisp=<file>
12 Process lisp file <file> in batch mode.
16 @item --batch-string=<string>
17 Process maxima command(s) <string> in batch mode.
21 @item -d, --directories
22 Display maxima internal directory information.
26 @item --disable-readline
27 Disable readline support.
31 @item -g, --enable-lisp-debugger
32 Enable underlying lisp debugger.
37 Display this usage message.
41 @item --userdir=<directory>
42 Use <directory> for user directory (default is %USERPROFILE%/maxima for
43 Windows, and $HOME/.maxima for other operating systems).
48 Set the base name of the Maxima & Lisp initialization files (default is
49 "maxima-init".) The last extension and any directory parts are removed
50 to form the base name. The resulting files, <base>.mac and <base>.lisp
51 are only searched for in userdir (see --userdir option). This may be
52 specified for than once, but only the last is used.
56 @item -l <lisp>, --lisp=<lisp>
57 Use lisp implementation <lisp>.
62 List the installed version/lisp combinations.
66 @item -p <file>, --preload=<file>, --preload-lisp=<file>, --init-mac=<file>, --init-lisp=<file>
67 Preload <file>, which may be any file time accepted by Maxima's LOAD
68 function. The <file> is loaded before any other system initialization
69 is done. This will be searched for in the locations given by
70 file_search_maxima and file_search_lisp. This can be specified multiple
71 times to load multiple files. The equivalent options --preload-lisp,
72 --init-mac, and --init-lisp are deprecated.
77 Suppress Maxima start-up message.
81 @item -r <string>, --run-string=<string>
82 Process maxima command(s) <string> in interactive mode.
86 @item -s <port>, --server=<port>
87 Connect Maxima to server on <port>.
91 @item -u <version>, --use-version=<version>
92 Use maxima version <version>.
97 Display lisp invocation in maxima wrapper script.
102 Display the default installed version.
107 Suppress expression labels and Maxima start-up message.
111 @item -X <Lisp options>, --lisp-options=<Lisp options>
112 Options to be given to the underlying Lisp
116 @item --no-init, --norc
117 Do not load the init file(s) on startup
121 @item --no-verify-html-index
